Prototype injection molds shorten the entire product development cycle and become the source of drive innovation. In the past, companies sometimes chose to postpone or abandon design updates for new products, given the large capital investment required to create new mold. By reducing mold preparation time and enabling existing design tools to be quickly updated, the Prototyp injection molding enables companies to withstand more frequent replacement and improvement of molds. It enables the mold design cycle to keep pace with the new product design cycle.

Subtractive manufacturing (computer numerical control, or CNC machining) Essentially involves subtracting or cutting from a block of material to create an end product. With many different forms (milling, turning, laser cutting, wire EDM, and carving) and Substractive manufacturing is used for a wide variety of prototyping, production and assembly line applications. Both technologies have their strengths and weaknesses when it comes to a product development and the manufacturing environment.

What's the difference between Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) and Selective Laser Melting (SLM)? In SLM,powdered material is full melted ,whereas in SLS the powder is heated below its melting point (sintering). When laser heats the powder material to below melting point, it forms solid by fusion.The working principle is almost same in both printing method.

The designer typically works with a client to offer a number of potential designs, marketing professionals, and financial analysts to create a final product that is useful and cost-efficient. The work for a product designer is to design the overall look and aesthetic of a particular product. This can be anything from desk storage plastic baskets or a toothbrush container to bluetooth

The production mold is designed for high-volume manufacturing and made from hardened steel. The production tool always has automated slides for side action and multiple cavities. the prototype mold is fabricated in aluminum or soft steel for short-run manufacturing or concept validation, has hand-loaded core pins, hand-loaded slides and typically single cavity.

There are many rapid prototyping production methods to choose from, each with benefits and limitations, including: 1. 3D Printing Includes Stereolithography (SLA), Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Selective Laser Melting (SLM), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Digital Light Processing (DLP) 2. CNC Machining 3. Vacuum casting 4. Rapid molding or prototype injection molding. You can choose the most suitable methods to make the prototypes base on your use and purpose.

During the last 10 years, every year a large number of factories in China have been closed down due to the rise up in price of land/labor/energy along with the upvaluation of the RMB, has brought unprecedented pressure to the manufacturing industry. Which approach the manufacturing industry should take? Chinese government vigorously promote industry upgrading and transformation but it was not easy for most factories which used to work with OEM.
